My C7250 all-in-one wireless printer is making copies and scans with verticle stripes - how do I stop the stipes?

Hi.
On the drums for each colour there is a purple/blue/green slider for cleaning the corona wire. If there is a stripe of colour anywhere on the page going from top to bottom check these sliders. They need to be where the arrow on the slider meets the arrow on the drum casing.

As for low toner on the Yellow and Magent - Replace the cartridges.

In the menu area of the printer you can adjust the light and dark of the scan. That should help you out. If you can get a darker copy of what you are scanning that will help as well.

You cant scan in any other format just image format.After scan you can convert it to other format with a 3rd party app.

Sounds like a printer driver problem. In Printers and Faxes, delete the wireless printer's icon from the laptop that has the printing problem. Then, reinstall the printer driver. Hope that helps.

Never had that camera, however, had the same problem -- the pink stripe and pink cast. Turns out the lens cover was slightly cracked and not opening and closing properly. Thus -- the pink cast.

This print defect can be caused by a foreign object or substance on the outside of the scanner assembly, usually located on the plastic cover that the paper passes over.

Do copies come out the same? How about when you print? If you get the stripes whenever the printer prints from the computer or copies, then you probably have a bad ink cartridge. If you get it only when you make copies or scan, then check for dirt on the scan glass. Clean it anyway with some commercial glass cleaner. See if that works.

If you are running your copies through the document feeder then see if the line goes away if you make a copy directly from the glass. If the line goes away then open up the doc feeder assy. by hinging it to the left. Underneath you will find that there is a thin strip of glass that the document passes over when it is scanned. Clean this strip of glass and this should correct your problem. If there is a smudge of dirt or small line, it will come out as a solid verticle line when scanned.

first check the printer by copying something,here u can see the problem that u r telling me,or check it by scanning something in ur computer,if u can see that problem,all u have to do is,open the top glass cover, under the top cover thers a scanning unit(lamp unit),in that scanning unit ther are some mirrors clean that mirrors with cotton bud,clean the top glass,n fix everything again,problem will be solved

thnx N

If it makes verticle lines only when using the document feeder it is most likely a dirty glass strip over the scanner light bar. If it makes verticle lines in all modes (printing, flat bed scanning/copying, receiving faxes) it could be the fuser or a dirty glass over the laser where ever the laser images to a drum roller (usually a larger green roller). It is possible that this green drum roller is inside the toner - if so - replacing the toner cartridge could fix it. Maybe you could try an old used toner to see of the problem changes - if so - it is very likely that a new toner would fix your print quality issue.
